Wow havent been on hee for a while.
Well good things first i have had achange of medz to see if this helps with anger so just wqaiting, i sleep well most of the time at the moment.
Best of all my little man turned 4 the other day and he had a wonderful day with just mum and him and then his party went really well as well.

Well i havent slept for the past few night due to being woken with my middle man having dreams or my husband so really tired and emotional and today i know someone out there hates me we just get our heads above water and the car breaks down $100 before its even at the garage i just cant win so this has sent me into a blubbering mess my kidz are really going it at the moment i just dont know when its ment to stop or how much more i can do.

well i have been in my job three weeks and i can say it is harder now then before im so tired i just seem to be grinding along just pushing everything down i cant sleep at night and im ok as long as i dont stop and that is just it im exhausted but once i stop the cloud comes over and i just crash, i dont see the point in talking to kw as they dont help.

I went to the lawyer over a form i had to fill out and basically she said it would be in my best interest to declare i have a mental illness and that just stresses and scare the shit out of me as i have already been discriminated against so arr i just dont know.


i have been back to the dr about middle man and that is not good either as they are doing a test to check and confirm a diganoses of mood disorder but the stress is that the medz he are on at the mo are a miricle it returned my family to normal and with the new med his behaviour will go back to how it was before and worse and i will not be able to handle that i just cant. I hate the way that they play with lives i understand why they did it but they dont have to live with it and they messed with my meds for so long i cant watch him go through the say thing.

I hate feeling so down i really dont see what i have got to be sad about but i just cant help it, it never seems to get better.

Wow where does the time go.

Well i went to a friends and she read my cards for me and it was amazing she is a great friend who knows and understands which helps she is always there and has the right things to say and i trust her, well it just proved it today she read my cards and it was so on the money it wasnt funny.

The cards told me i was in an emotional state and they were right four of my cards were so right it was scary one said that to other i appeared incontrol and widsom i think it was then the next said i see myself in a totally different light where im an emotional reck and not incontrol tryin to keep it together yes a big tick and then the next card said i was being told i had to start taking care of me and it is right,
so listen to your friend they may have more insight than you know,

Hi Mumofthree,

Just catching up on the latest posts and looking around the various topics. Stumbled across your latest post. I know what you're going through. It's frustrating and exasperating.

I myself have been trying to get some support. After looking around and talking to various people I finally coughed up $20 and went to my GP for a referral to have a psychiatric assessment. Got the referral and, as expected, the prescription for antidepressants that I didn't want and haven't taken as I told my GP. Had a couple of phone calls from a clinic and they've closed my file. They suggested that I go to a counsellor who are generally useless. They also said that I should go on the antidepressants and I told them that I'm not. They're only to help me sleep which is treating the symptoms and not addressing the cause.

Based on my low view of society I was expecting to be diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia or delusional psychosis. Apparently being deemed not necessary for even a face-to-face discussion I am taking it that I am mentally OK which means that my low view of society is correct. It's the normal people who fit in society that are the ones who are psychotic or delusional. Medication can soften the minds of people some people so that they fit, so to speak. That's the approach of doctors and their prescriptions.

Not content with their prognosis I have started an in-depth study of clinical psychiatry. There is an excellent library available through the Mental Health Foundation. It didn't take long to find out about the Biopsychosocial (BPS) Model which is what my GP has been using to explain things to me. This was introduced in general medical studies in the 1980s or so and widely recognised by clinical psychiatrists. Like all models it cannot explain everything but at least now I know what mental health professionals should know. It's sort of like noticing that your car is not running well, reading up on the text books that car mechanics have to study and pass their exams, get a good understanding of what's really wrong with your car and then going to a mechanic and talking to them in proper mechanical terms about what's wrong with your car and what the mechanic is to do to fix it. If the mechanic doesn't understand what you're talking about then you know they are a bad mechanic and take your car to another one who hopefully does have a good understanding of car mechanics and can fix your car.

Basically the BPS model recognises that people have three aspects: biological, psychological and social. It is based on a philosophical understanding of health and society called medical sociology. I first came across this concept when listening to a story about the 20th century philosopher called Foucault who postulated his theory which is described as a powerful framework; sort of like Einstein and physics I suppose. Applying observations about myself and similar people I've met and read about (like those written about by Theodore Dalrymple who, amongst other things, has worked as a psychiatrist in a London prison and large hospital in a low socioeconomic area) makes me think that a lot of peoples' mental health problems are actually caused by a maligned society. The standard approach taken by most in the medical profession is to assume society is right and adjust the person to fit in. I tend to think that society should be changed rather than the individual; maybe both. That is a big problem but I think I'm on the right track.

As usual, I am going to do as suggested by the psychiatric clinic and go to a counsellor. I might be able to get across to them my ideas. I'm might end up going back to a psychiatrist and up the Ministry of Health hierarchy with my views. If my ideas are sound then the authorities will not only have to acknowledge them but also do something about it for both professional and ethical reasons. I can see the issue probably being categorised outside their responsibility in which case I will take it up with the the relevant ministerial portfolio. Seeing this is spilling over into a social issue I have a feeling I'll end up having to go to the Ministry of Social Development.

My apologies for pouring all this rubbish out on you here. I'll start a thread elsewhere on TBBD. If you really want to take in what I've been going on about then I suggest you find a nice, quiet place (I go to my local library which is where I am right now), have a relaxing walk (make sure take your time) and then sit down and slowly go through what I've been saying. I would really like to hear what you think. Same with other people too.

How about telling us a bit more about what's going on in your crisis. Talk about your internal and external factors. Internal factors are like your diet (type, balance and amount); self-medication; exercise (type and how often); coping style (meditation, relaxation and leisure); thought patterns; and genetics (similar problems experienced by brothers/sisters, parents, uncles/aunties and cousins). External factors are like your current social situation; relationships and cultural factors. All these might seem to pry but I am sure (would hope) your GP and various councillors have asked these sorts of questions. I'm asking all this for two reasons: firstly, they are aspects of the BPS model; and secondly, it would be helpful to provide each other with good mutual or peer support. I suppose I could go back through the ten pages of posts but you doing what I've asked will condense and encapsulate all the relevant information.
